Frequently asked questions

How much smaller will my files get?

Typical savings: CSS 15–40%, HTML 5–20%, JS 10–30% depending on how heavily commented and formatted the source is. Combined with gzip on your server, transfer sizes drop further.

Is this minification safe?

The tool removes comments and collapses whitespace while respecting strings. It never renames variables. Edge cases exist in unusual JS (e.g. regex literals with unbalanced quotes) — always test output before deploying.

Does minifying improve SEO?

Indirectly, yes — smaller files load faster, and page speed is a Google ranking factor via Core Web Vitals.

Is my code uploaded?

No — minification runs entirely in your browser, so proprietary code stays private.
